Don't Worry......

Heather Here: Today has been a big day, two therapy sessions one physical and one occupational.  During the physical therapy Dad was able to sit on the side of the bed for about 5 minutes one minute of which was unassisted.  The goal for tomorrow is to have him sit in a chair and take some steps.  The morphine pump was removed this morning and replaced with an oral pain medication.  This has resulted in Dad being awake more and eating a few bites of food.  Earlier I was reassuring Dad that everything is going just as it should, I told him not to worry and he said "be happy".  I asked him if he would like to hear the song and he said yes.  I quickly put on Bobby McFerrin's fabulous song and as soon as it began to play he puckered his lips a bit as if to whistle and sang a few notes.
